Walked into the West Roxbury Panera to discover they have a weekly singalong for the under-3 set every Thursday. For some reason, one of the songs the guitarist chose was "Take Me Out to the Ballgame," whose lyrics he modified slightly:

If they don't win it's a shame

There are 40,000 people in Fenway every home game who see those lyrics on the scoreboard and hear it sung that way. It's not exactly revolutionary.
You heard wrong
It was:
If they don't win it's the same...
